...cannot be eliminated it is essential fact of the human condition (Maddox, 1998). Maintenance professionals will always try to avoid making errors. Unfortunately, even the most highly trained and motivated professionals will make mistakes, however, with suitable understanding of the human factor and appropriate training, professionals can mitigate the consequences of errors. The human factor component of aviation maintenance can be grouped in four general categories: 1. Effective training for technicians and inspectors; 2. On the job safety of maintenance workers; 3. Human error that compromises public safety; and 4. Overall cost of maintenance errors. The Human Factor in Aviation Maintenance Aviation is an industry where mistakes mean lives are at risk. Airplanes have become more complicated and sophisticated in their evolution within the past 50 years. Maintenance technicians must continuously update their proficiency and knowledge in airplane repair because of the enormous differences in new and old aircraft that are presently in use (Maddox, 1998). Aviation maintenance professionals have earned high levels of technical skills training associated with their profession, however research in a number of industrial sectors indicate that up to 80% of accident causes can be attributed to a breakdown in human interaction. Human error cannot be eliminated it is essential fact of the human condition (Maddox, 1998). The science of human factor has been...

...honest but for some reason it just doesn’t make much sense. This test of grit is supposed to measures conscientiousness courage, excellence, resilience, and endurance versus perfection. In the courage part when it talks about fear of failure is described as, “a debilitating disorder characterized by an unhealthy aversion to risk. Some symptoms include anxiety, mental blocks, and perfectionism…” Even though I don’t think I have a disorder I’m pretty conscious with the fact that I do have a fear of failure. In fact, when it comes to perfectionism, I end up spending more time on the final presentation and every little detail rather than focus on the excellence of a project. Age is a very important in determining level of grit in a population. Individual experience about when being persistent allows you to figure out which things are worth doing. It may be worth someone you may be paying for services or solution to a problem, but it may not be worth pursuing a modeling career at the age of 30 and being 60 pounds overweight. Learning to pick my fights is not a reflection of my grittiness, but somewhat realistic of the human condition, which is almost always disappointing. Most of the tips listed on ways to improve grit said I was “realistic optimist” (Jotski, K.). This worked for me a couple quarters back when I chose to be the leader for a debate. SOURCES 1.

A child who was isolated from the world by her family’s religious norms found comfort in playing the piano, reading books and playing with her imaginary friend called Bettering. Isolation and loneliness of life is something that is familiar to this play wright and is found in her many works such as “The Secret Garden” and “Getting Out”. Marsha Norman’s imaginary friend Bettering can be seen as a metaphor that compares her own relationships with her family, particularly her mother, and the feelings of alienation she felt as a child and her desire to be in control and better her life.

Values are conferred and inculcated into us by various agents of cultural influence such as the family unit, a myriad of institutions and social structures, and mostly importantly the cultural edifice of mutually affirmed inter-subjectivity. These same values serve as a cultural and linguistic prism through which we perceive and make the world palpable, recognizable and intelligible. Although most values are limited to the cultural and social milieu which any given individual inhabits and navigates, some values are universal and unwavering across all lifestyles and customs. The values and virtues I will be discussing have foot in both domains of understanding but are mostly intrinsic to the human condition and human existence, applicable and sought by...

...is an anxiety disorder where sufferers experience persistent and intrusive thoughts occurring as obsessions, compulsions or a combination of the two. Obsessions are things that people think about and can comprise of inappropriate ideas and visual images that aren’t based on reality, such as being convinced that there are germs everywhere. Compulsions are what people do as a result of those obsessions; they are an attempt to reduce distress or prevent feared events, though there is little chance of them doing so. Symptoms of OCD.

...Anxiety, Mood/Affective and Dissociative/Somatoform Disorders Laura Jackson PSY/410 June 21, 2012 Angela Wall Anxiety, Mood/Affective and Dissociative/Somatoform Disorders Anxiety, mood and dissociative and somatoform disorders take way from individuals the capacity for normal social and expected daily functioning. The biological, emotional, behavioral and cognitive components do vary even though each component has symptoms and parts that overlap. This paper will identify all these components for anxiety, mood, and dissociative/somatoform disorders and will figure out what aims toward a better understanding of more therapeutic applications. ANXIETY DISORDER COMPONENTS Biological The biological component of anxiety disorder has the job of functioning the autonomic nervous system, the limbic system, neutral transmission, autoimmune processes and inherited factors that predispose an individual to anxiety. Anxiety then produces affective physical reactions in people. The biological perspective views the action or the stimuli of the nervous system and its deficiencies (National Institutes of Health, 2010). This may also be associated with genetic predispositions, neuro-chemical and hormonal malfunctions (Schimelpfening, 2009). Emotional The emotional components of anxiety disorders include...

(2008). The interest of the paper will be to look at the areas of anxiety, mood/affective, and somatoform disorders. Many of the disorders that people can have are complex and more debilitating than others. Each disorder can be analyzed in components like biologic, psychodynamic, cognitive, and behavioral. Anxiety to people is the fear of different things that come and the cause for much of the flourish of disorders. People who suffer from the anxiety disorder would have intense to extreme feelings. The thoughts that can come to mind would make the disorder worse and the help people can get can calm the thoughts. The mind is not the only part that could affect people because the body is also affected. There is a difference between normal anxieties to abnormal anxiety which has worse affects on a person. The generalized anxiety disorder which is also GAD and people who deal with this feel tense and they worry most of the time. Biological part of the anxiety can come from a family history which the disorders could be different from each other. The relation in the...

...Anxiety and components. According to Onions (1996), the term anxiety is derived from the Latin word angere, meaning to choke. In sports psychology, anxiety is defined as an unpleasant emotion which is characterised by vague but persistent feelings of apprehension and dread (Cashmore, 2008). Most psychologists regard anxiety as a multidimensional constract with at least 3 components: cognitive, somatic (i.e. physical) and behavioural (Gould et al., 2002). First, cognitive anxiety involves worrying or having negative expectations about some impending situation or performance and engaging in task-irrelevant thinking as a consequence.Dunn (1999), discovered four main themes in their analysis of cognitive anxiety in ice-hockey players. These themes were a fear of performance, failure, apprehension about negative evaluation by others, concerns about physical injury or danger, and unspecified fear of the unknown. The second component of the construct of anxiety involves somatic or bodily processes. Somatic anxiety refers to the physical manifestation of anxiety and may be defined as “one’s perception of the physiological-affective elements of the anxiety experience, that is, indications of autonomic arousal and unpleasant feeling states such as nervousness and tension” (Morris et al., 1981). In sport , this component of anxiety is apparent when an athlete is afflicted by such physical markers as neuroendocrine responses (e.g., secretion of cortisol- the “stress” hormone), increases...

...AMI JOHNSTONE ORIGINS OF STRESS AND ANXIETY The origins of stress start at the very beginning of existence when we first encounter change. – because change is full of uncertainties our subconscious does not cope very well leading to feelings of anxiety. This anxiety can be chronic, which is long term or acute, which is short term. Each depends on the circumstances. e.g., moving home, illness or divorce …would be classed as long term, and public speaking, driving test or interview would be classed as short term. Genetics and environment also play a big part in the cause of anxiety and it is likely that if the parents didn’t cope well with stress and the traumas in life this learned behaviour will manifest itself in the next generation. However there are many levels of stress as detailed below. Hypostress - Caused by boredom and lack of challenge. If a job is repetitive or boring it will be difficult to be motivated in other areas in life. This lack of stimulation will also allow time to overthink and fret over unimportant things. Eurostress - This is a performance stress which increase motivation and performance. It gives us the strength to complete tasks under pressure. I use this frequently when completing work for the deadline before my Hypnotherapy class!! It also occurs when we increase physical activity as well as creativity. Acute Stress - This is the most common stress and our body reacts with tension and physical changes. It can...
